Posted by retribution:Yeah, I don't think you'd be laughing very hard if you had thousands of dollars locked in the site. I mean personally, I've been watching and covering the developments via videos and articles, and so when I saw this not only did I think I was going to FINALLY get my money back, I also thought I'd have some awesome news to report, so I was doubly excited.

Serious, anyone who thinks this is funny, you're the kind of people that would probably laugh at a fat person falling down.

Offcourse i wud be pissed having couple K's on FT and FT shuts down.However this was a joke and offcourse if you had couple of K's on it, its a littl harsh joke but still i think its a master joke.

Btw you was the 1 who won $98K on FT?Sorry if shuffle you with another name, my brains work not fulltime lately

Yes, but thankfully I withdrew all but a few k, but this joke still really pissed me off. It's not like the money would be life changing, but still.

The whole thing is an ongoing joke imo. It was illegal, it got shut down. People who should have known the risk cry foul as the world turns. If you got jacked by tilt for a large sum and continue to play illegal poker then you now know the risk and have only urself to blame if anything happens again.

My heart was pumpimg, my blood was flowing and I had already had my account re-opened until I clicked on "Read the Whole Story". What a let down, but I gotta laugh at myself for getting so excited! This is a really good one though I must say! But, I believe this will happen this year!

BRM....what a hoot..... love the way you reported this and had a right good laugh, even though they still have some of my bank roll. The Messi and Woods links were something else and almost played the right ball with the lines you chose. Cracking good effort once again BRM.

Wow, very nice news, I think I will opt to open a new account because I forgot all about my past data (login and pass) for FT, do you think it will be possible to open this new account with the same mail? Will they have all the old accounts in inactive mode, or will they give this chance to open new accounts and then, if the new account email matches and antique account, they will erase the old account? What matters now is that, during this week we will all be waiting to see new FT promos here at BRM, and then, on the 7th, FT will be exploding of players everywhere, every levels!

it was illegal in US not for the rest of the world (atleast most, dnt know about laws in canada)if there was proper segregation/management of funds, the rest of the world wudnt hav been affected much by it like pokerstars

At 23 days days is this a record for a BRM April Fools? Or has there been a time delay to and from Canada? Usually the Canadians are pretty switched on!!!!!!Anyway,,,,cant wait for FTP to come back so I can see hopw many people who said they would never go back....go back!!!!
